           Abstract 
           This study, commissioned by the PETI Committee of the European Parliament, provides a 
           brief overview of the relevant EU labelling legislation Member States have to comply with, 
           with regard to labelling of food, including organic products, for consumers, with emphasis 
           on the requirements of Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011. It critically assesses these laws and 
           discusses progress - or lack thereof -, in particular with regard to aspects such as safety, 
           health effects, effects for disabled people, etc. It explores and elaborates on the question 
           of whether the current labelling requirements actually result in clearer information to help 
           citizens to better understand the composition and health effects of food. The study also 
           provides brief analyses/assessments of several petitions provided by the PETI Committee. 
           Where possible, this study makes (policy) recommendations for EU institutions and/or 
           Member States, taking into account their respective remits.
